    Hey Jude is an all-time classic. It was #1 on the pop charts for 9 weeks in 1968. Paul wrote it for John's son, Julian. John and his first wife, Cynthia, were getting a divorce and Paul wrote it to brighten up Julian's day with an uplifting message.

    I grew up with the Beatles music & had most of their records. They were part of the British Invasion. You can't go wrong with any of their music. They had so many great songs in the 60's-70's. "Hey Jude" is a great song written by Paul McCartney to comfort Julian Lennon when his parents separated.

    5.20 is when Johns harmony kicks in. Paul looks up at him and smiles. The harmony is not obvious at all, it's underneath Paul then goes above. Genius beauty. That's the Beatles!

    • @patticrichton1135
      @patticrichton1135 Год назад +5

      Paul smiles, because John FORGOT to COME IN with harmonies, the FIRST time around. You will see Paul look in John's direction (when it's a long shot with the camera, where you can see the whole group) and then look at John and you will see him look down at Paul and John raises his eyebrows (as if to say, "what's wrong?" then realizes he DIDN'T do the harmony, and slightly gives a shrug of his shoulders. It's really funny. So when it comes around for the harmony to kick in again, you see Paul glance over at John and couple of times and it looks like he might be thinking, "Ok, is John going to come in or not" Then Paul puts his head down to hide his chuckle when John finally does what he is supposed to do, this time. I LOVE it

    This was the late 1960's, performing on David Frost's TV show, with the band breaking up at the end of that decade. You rightly picked up on the diversity of the audience which was key with The Beatles. This is the group who when they were touring the US for the first time were horrified when they found at one venue the audience was to be segregated. Coming from Liverpool, a very diverse city in the UK they were not used to that and refused to perform unless the segregation was dropped, which (as it was the Beatles dictating terms) it was - a quite historic moment. And then on top of that the song was an absolute banger still played constantly today. Literally they are unsurpassed in so many ways for their influence towards changing music and society.

      They were not performing on The David Frost Show. They were filming the promotional film, of which there were three, one of which was given to the Frost show to premiere, and Frost dropped by Twickenham - where it was filmed - to film a link to give the impression they were live on the show. The "audience" were made up of people they'd invited, members of the Twickenham Beatles Fan Club, and hired extras. The performance is live vocals on top of prerecorded studio backing track.

The FIRST best photo of saw of them was the cover of their "MEET THE BEATLES" ALBUM, and how PAUL looked on that cover. YES it is his EYES that attracted me right off, I thought he was so handsome too, just like YOU said. I still love Paul to this day, he is still my favorite Beatle.

    The song/video is almost 55 years old!!! I just had an emotional reaction to it and I can't explain why precisely. Maybe it's knowing that this was one of the last times The Beatles were a band working collaboratively and seemingly having a good time together. Seeing them playing and all the people around them - which was very odd but great - only adds to the visceral, emotional experience. I've always loved the tone of Paul's piano in Hey Jude. Ringo's little drum fills, as always, are spectacular but restrained. John and George's backing vocals are perfect.
    Just think about this too ladies and everybody: The Beatles were only 2 years away from breaking up and at this time they were only in their mid to late 20s!!!! Unbelievable what they accomplished in a relatively short period of time. It will never be duplicated let alone surpassed by any band.

    I remember watching that live performance on TV the night it was broadcast on the David Frost Show on London Weekend Television in the autumn of 1968. You can appreciate that in those days everything to do with the Beatles was a major event but that felt extra special and I can remember the following day at school everybody talking about it excitedly.

    Thanks for taking the time to review Hey Jude. Spot on with your feelings; the song envelopes with warmth and simplicity, it is sung directly to each individual listener. More please :)

    This song from The Beatles called "Hey Jude"the band started writing the lyrics in 1966 but it took 2 years to get this song right to sing the son for which was done in 1968 because of the rewriting the lyrics to the song,so the song came out in 1968.

    Your point about rhe diversity of the audience participation is really significant. They pointed a way that too few have followed.

    When Paul first wrote this song it was called Hey Jules after John's first son, Julien, to help him adjust to his fathers breakup with his mother Cynthia. It was the period seen as the start of the big breakup of the Beatles. With the Double White Album under production, there were many arguments between the Band Members. Ringo left the band for a few months in this time. But, in my opinion, this song was their greatest.

    This was taped in August of 1968, song became a #1 in Fall of 1968. I was 12 years old then. They were singing here with an instrumental version of the record, with Paul's voice doubled with the record in spots, and the back up vocal sboth recorded and live, the instruments also. it was difficult to get a good sound with limited technology back in 1968, and you couldn't hire an orchestra , too expensive, to make the big sound on the 2nd half. We saw this video from the David Frost show in England, in America, on the Smother's Brothers TV show[you should check them out, they were hilarious musical comedians]. This was their biggest selling single Number 1 at 9 weeks in a row in he USA. The Beatles brought the world together for few moments with this TV appearance, you don't see this anymore...all you see are phony brutal reality shows drama shows, and stupid game shows and school shootings. The world was not perfect in 1968 either, but at least we had some hope.

      There IS an orchestra there on the set, right behind them, you hear them come in later on the song. "It was difficult to get a good sound with "LIMITED TECHNOLOGY back in 1968"?? Uh, there were a lot of variety shows, that had live singing acts on them and the sound was just fine. I was 21 in 1968 and you make it sound like TV was still in its infancy like it was in the early '50s! LOL!

    Fantastic reaction. Just 1 correction: the Beatles aren't 1 of the most famous bands in the world, they're the most famous band in the world.

    the last sing-along portion of this video always tears me up. "hey jude" was the beatles biggest selling single out selling "i want to hold your hand" from 5 years before. it was the SECOND biggest seller of the 60s topped only by the archies "sugar sugar" of all things. with all the great counter-culture, mind expanding music of the 60s pop still reigned supreme in the 60s as it always does. go figure.
    but remember the beatles were NOT a ballad band. i would hardly even classify "hey jude" as a proper ballad. the beatles were a r&r band right down to their dna. and they experimented, quite successfully, with many musical genres and styles. with most rock bands of the late 60s and 70s their best music could be found on their albums. but the beatles' singles were just as good as their albums. the beatles didn't put their singles on their british albums. but, in the u.s., capitol records did up until 1967. but "hey jude" only appeared on an album in 1970 with capitol's release of the "hey jude" compilation album which wasn't released in britain.
    the beatles were so much fun. and so interesting to study. their history is just as much fun as their music. but without the music you'd have no history. THE BEATLES WERE JUST MAGICAL! there's no other way to describe them.
